What can I expect from A Friend 4U?
When you call us, we’ll listen to you. You can share as much or as little as you want. You can ask more about our program.
If you choose to be matched in our program, you’ll be connected with a trained volunteer within 24 hours and know a bit about her before the two of you connect. From there, YOU define the relationship according to your needs. Friendships typically last beyond pregnancy because that is what our clients choose.
The two of you decide where you would like to meet. Some meet in coffee shops, fast food restaurants or a local park.
Your friend will also connect you to organizations which provide material and professional services in our local community.
You will receive occasional gifts and holiday cards during your pregnancy to encourage you. You can contact us via text, phone or through our website to learn more.
